Ha! Kill a sheep on a once in a life time tag like that, with that kind of handicap?

Is there a cap on the number of sheep or goat tickets?

The number of tickets we sell is not capped, but there is a cap on how many a person can purchase (25 each).

I would love to tag along, but as Dink said, I'm not sure you need the added challenge.

Got it! I know my odds aren't good. At least this way I won't know exactly how bad they are!

I'll get a few anyway.

Last year's lucky winner did well.

Here is a nice 2015 ram killed by a regular joe, that officially scored 192"+ after the 60 day drying period.

Probably donating my money for the rifles and the some the glass. Love to dream.

 

[blue devil]

Might as well put some money in! You never do know when luck comes around. Maybe I'll get lucky on a Sheep hunt, since it seems I will never get lucky enough in my home state of SD

Sorry guy's. The winning raffle ticket was already purchased at the sheep show.

How many tickets are sold for the sheep raffle?

The AK raffle idea has wheels... not sure how big yet, but the idea has been floated to a few conservation groups.

I'll buy into that action for sure what the hell. I just finished watching season 2 sheep hunts and they were awesome for the 20th time. That Colorado hunt on the last day was intense.

How many tickets are sold for the sheep raffle?

It has varied over the last few years from 2900 to 3500.
